Floods

We were fortunate that our home escaped the flooding here in The Ville over the weekend. However, the academic floodgates have opened. Unless there is a miracle (or something so funny I have to share), Trading Faces is going quiet this week. In our absence, please enjoy these clips from the Scissor Sisters, whose superb new album dropped today, a frothy melange of Elton John-meets-BeeGees-meets-Pet Shop Boys-meets-David Bowie...trust me, it's hot.

"Take Your Mama" live at the Brit Awards with singing set courtesy Jim Henson Company! Check out the singing watermelons!

The new single, "I Don't Feel Like Dancin'"

The disco remake of Pink Floyd's "Comfortably Numb"

"Filthy Gorgeous," almost stolen as the title for this blog! This is the naughty NSFW version, kids.

Enjoy, and think of me as I'm buried in torts, contracts, my first memo, and an impending exam for basic legal research. I am so screwed.

Thanks for all the SS Christopher! Unfortunately I waited too long to get tickets and won't be seeing them this Friday in San Francisco, although I caught their last show a year or two ago. I haven't heard the new CD but saw them perform the new single on Conan and it sounded great. I'm in love with their bassist Del Marquis!! Best of luck with all your work. Sending good sunny Cali vibes your way.
